Bottineau beats Minot tonight 5-1 to set up tomorrows game with Century that will determine the west region championship and #1 tourney seed. Any thoughts?

Idk about this one. Bottineau is unbeaten at home this year and the old lumberdome is a hard place to play. Century is very well balanced diciplined team and are going to be very tough to beat even at home for Bottineau. Bottineau has good offense but is little sketchy defensively at times. Should be a great game with a great atmosphere. I got Century winning it 3-2...Maybe?

Being a Bottineau supporter from afar, my concern is that they are coming off of a huge game physically and emotionally against Minot just last night. What is left in the tank for tonight? I hope they have something left.

I think that Bott is going to beat Century tonight. They are just to good on home ice. No one can beat them up there.

Wow! What a hockey game tonight. Great atmosphere in the barn. Bottineau wins in ot 5-4. Century still wins region title. Well played game on both sides. Hoff pulled the goalie with game tied with about a minute to go and Bottineau certainly had chances to win it in regulation. Kind of a back an forth game in ot till Bottineau got a odd man rush to finish it off. Aide and Volk for Bottineau were both excellent tonight along with Rauhauser and Holmen for Century. Sure would like to see this matchup again for the region title game.
